Re: [Xen-devel] Custom Guest OS not booting

[Scott Parish <srparish@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I didn't check which hcall you're making, but i'm betting its the one  
to do consoleio. By default, only dom0 is allowed to do such. You're  
options are either to do the work to get domU io working (non- 
trivial), or hack xen to allow anybody to write to consoleio. Look in  
xen/drivers/char/console.c line 349:
    /* Only domain 0 may access the emergency console. */
    if ( current->domain->domain_id != 0 )
        return -EPERM;

Good luck
